 Defra, UK - Flood Management - Flood and Coastal Management Conference, Abstracts from 38th Conference
This paper reports on computer modelling of the River Cherwell in Oxfordshire, to show the impacts on floods of changes to river channel geometry and construction/removal of embankments that prevent water spreading onto the floodplain at high flows.
Restoring the river channel through the floodplain to pre-engineered dimensions reduces peak flow by around 10-15% and increases peak water levels within the floodplain by 0.5-1.6 m.
The development is in line with the general shift in the approach to flood and coastal management in the UK from a deterministic approach focused on the design standard towards a risk-based approach that considers performance over a wider range of flood or storm events (ICE, 2001).
